Definitions

  • the present invention relates to PDE1 inhibitory compounds of Formula la as described below, processes for their production, their use as pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical compositions comprising them. These compounds are useful e.g., in the treatment of diseases involving disorders of the dopamine D1 receptor intracellular pathway, such as, among others, Parkinson’s disease, depression, narcolepsy, psychosis, damage to cognitive function, e.g., in schizophrenia, or disorders that may be ameliorated through enhanced progesterone-signaling pathway, e.g., female sexual dysfunction.

  • PDEs phosphodiesterases
  • CaM-PDEs Ca 2+ -calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases
  • CaM-PDEs Ca 2+ -calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases
  • PDEs are therefore active in stimulated conditions when intra-cellular calcium levels rise, leading to increased hydrolysis of cyclic nucleotides.
  • the three known CaM-PDE genes, PDE1A, PDE1B, and PDE1C are all expressed in central nervous system tissue.
  • PDE1A In the brain, the predominant expression of PDE1A is in the cortex and neostriatum, PDE1B is expressed in the neostriatum, prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and olfactory tubercle, and PDE1C is more ubiquitously expressed.
  • Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases decrease intracellular cAMP and cGMP signaling by hydrolyzing these cyclic nucleotides to their respective inactive 5 '-monophosphates (5 'AMP and 5'GMP).
  • CaM-PDEs play a critical role in mediating signal transduction in brain cells, particularly within an area of the brain known as the basal ganglia or striatum.
  • NMDA-type glutamate receptor activation and/or dopamine D2 receptor activation result in increased intracellular calcium concentrations, leading to activation of effectors such as calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) and calcineurin and to activation of CaM-PDEs, resulting in reduced cAMP and cGMP.
  • CaMKII calmodulin-dependent kinase II
  • calcineurin calmodulin-dependent kinase II
  • CaM-PDEs calmodulin-dependent kinase II
  • Dopamine D1 receptor activation leads to activation of nucleotide cyclases, resulting in increased cAMP and cGMP.
  • PKA protein kinase A
  • PKG protein kinase G
  • DARPP-32 dopamine and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein
  • CREB cAMP responsive element binding protein
  • Phosphorylated DARPP-32 in turn inhibits the activity of protein phosphates-1 (PP-1), thereby increasing the state of phosphorylation of substrate proteins such as progesterone receptor (PR), leading to induction of physiologic responses.
  • PP-1 protein phosphates-1
  • PR progesterone receptor
  • CaM-PDEs can therefore affect dopamine-regulated and other intracellular signaling pathways in the basal ganglia (striatum), including but not limited to nitric oxide, noradrenergic, neurotensin, CCK, VIP, serotonin, glutamate (e.g., NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor), GABA, acetylcholine, adenosine (e.g., A2A receptor), cannabinoid receptor, natriuretic peptide (e.g., ANP, BNP, CNP), DARPP-32, and endorphin intracellular signaling pathways.
  • nitric oxide e.g., noradrenergic
  • neurotensin e.g., CCK, VIP
  • serotonin e.g., glutamate (e.g., NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor)
  • GABA e.g., NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor
  • acetylcholine e.g
  • PDE1 phosphodiesterase 1
  • PDE1 functions in brain tissue as a regulator of locomotor activity and learning and memory.
  • PDE1 is a therapeutic target for regulation of intracellular signaling pathways, preferably in the nervous system, including but not limited to a dopamine D1 receptor, dopamine D2 receptor, nitric oxide, noradrenergic, neurotensin, CCK, VIP, serotonin, glutamate (e.g., NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor), GABA, acetylcholine, adenosine (e.g., A2A receptor), cannabinoid receptor, natriuretic peptide (e.g., ANP, GNP, CNP), endorphin intracellular signaling pathway and progesterone signaling pathway.
  • a dopamine D1 receptor e.g., dopamine D2 receptor
  • nitric oxide noradrenergic
  • neurotensin CCK
  • VIP serotonin
  • glutamate
  • inhibition of PDE IB should act to potentiate the effect of a dopamine D1 agonist by protecting cGMP and cAMP from degradation, and should similarly inhibit dopamine D2 receptor signaling pathways, by inhibiting PDE1 activity.
  • Chronic elevation in intracellular calcium levels is linked to cell death in numerous disorders, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's Diseases and in disorders of the circulatory system leading to stroke and myocardial infarction.
  • PDE1 inhibitors are therefore potentially useful in diseases characterized by reduced dopamine D1 receptor signaling activity, such as Parkinson's disease, restless leg syndrome, depression, narcolepsy and cognitive impairment.
  • PDE1 inhibitors are also useful in diseases that may be alleviated by the enhancement of progesterone- signaling such as female sexual dysfunction.
  • the inventors have further found that the metabolite of Formula M-I accounted for 84% of the total circulating drug related materials in human plasma after oral administration of Compound 1.
  • the current invention provides compounds which specifically limit and/or prevent metabolism occurring by these pathways. Due to the very similar properties of deuterium (3 ⁇ 4) atoms compared to normal hydrogen atoms ( 'H), drug compounds in which deuterium is substituted for hydrogen are believed to generally have similar biological activity to the non-deuterated analog, but potentially with improved pharmacokinetic properties. The extent to which such a substitution will result in an improvement of pharmacokinetic properties without a too severe loss in pharmacologic activity is variable. Thus, in some circumstances, the resulting deuterated compound only a moderate increase in pharmacokinetic stability, while in other circumstances, the resulting deuterated compound may have significantly improved stability. Moreover, it may be difficult to predict with certainty the effects of simultaneous deuterium substitutions. These may or may not result in additive (synergistic) improvement in metabolic stability.

  • 99 pi of diluted enzyme solution is added into each well in a flat bottom 96-well polystyrene plate to which 1 pi of test compound dissolved in 100% DMSO is added. The compounds are mixed and pre-incubated with the enzyme for 10 min at room temperature.
  • the FL-GMP conversion reaction is initiated by combining 4 parts enzyme and inhibitor mix with 1 part substrate solution (0.225 pM) in a 384-well microtiter plate. The reaction is incubated in dark at room temperature for 15 min. The reaction is halted by addition of 60 pL of binding reagent (1:400 dilution of IMAP beads in binding buffer supplemented with 1:1800 dilution of antifoam) to each well of the 384-well plate. The plate is incubated at room temperature for 1 hour to allow IMAP binding to proceed to completion, and then placed in an Envision multimode microplate reader (PerkinElmer, Shelton, CT) to measure the fluorescence polarization (Amp).
